I had a fantastic stay at this resort! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the harbor where all the sightseeing tours depart. The amenities were great, including a clean pool area. The only downside was that some areas of the resort could use some maintenance, but overall I really enjoyed my time here and felt it was good value for money.

We had a wonderful time at the resort, particularly enjoying the spacious penthouse with stunning views from the balcony. The check-in process was smooth and the apartment was well-equipped. However, we did notice some maintenance issues in the hallway, and the reception closing early could be inconvenient for some. Overall, it's a delightful place to stay, especially if you love beautiful views.

Our stay at the resort was fantastic, especially with the spacious three-bedroom unit offering beautiful pool views. The property feels luxurious with its well-maintained pool and friendly staff who really added to our experience. However, the location is a bit far from the shops, so we had to drive for dining options, and the pool was unexpectedly cold. Overall, it’s a great resort for families and groups looking for a relaxing getaway.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is conveniently located just a short walk from the marina and close to several dining options. The spacious rooms were a highlight, especially with the lovely balcony views. However, the overall condition of some amenities, like the pool area, could use a bit of attention. Additionally, I found the Wi-Fi connection to be unreliable at times.

Our stay at the hotel was mixed; while the apartment was spacious and modern with a great pool, our experience with cleanliness was disappointing. The location was fantastic for whale watching, and the amenities were generally good. Unfortunately, some aspects of the service left much to be desired.
